Overview for carbon suppliers

Supply tokenised carbon credits to the Klima Protocol at a programmatically determined price, with instant settlement.

The full protocol and app are scheduled for release in January 2026. The actions described below will become available at that time.

Klima offers the following functionality for sellers:

• Provide a batch of eligible carbon credits to the protocol at a quoted, real-time price. The Protocol will make these credits available for immediate retirement for its demand side users.

• Receive settlement in USDC, a dollar-denominated stablecoin designed for fast, global transfers.

• Alternatively, settlement may be received in kVCM, which can be used to access carbon retirement functionality or to participate in protocol governance signalling.

This comes with the following limitations:

• Carbon credits supplied to the protocol are not acquired for resale or trading and may only be accessed for retirement via irreversible consumption.

• Only whitelisted credits are supported at the moment – contact us if you think your credit should be added.

• Credits must be in tokenised form. Some registries don’t support tokenisation at the moment.

• All sales are final. Once the credit is secured by Klima, it will be programmatically locked until retired.

• Prices can change quickly as other users make their own trades.

Klima is currently accepting credits originating from the following registries:

• EcoRegistry

• Puro.Earth

• Carbonmark Direct Issuance (CMARK)

• Regen

We are evaluating full integrations with the following registries:

• Social Carbon

• International Carbon Registry (ICR)

• Rainbow

COMING VERY SOON: Carbonmark.com will make it easy to instantly liquidate your credits to Klima for USD, via digital dollars like USDC. Until then, this guide is for users who already know how to operate a blockchain wallet on the Base network.
